The Research Institute is involved in the following works:
1) Identifying genuine medicinal plants of the classical formulations in the flora of India (literary and field research & documentation). We are maintaining an extensive library emphasizing Dravyaguna (Pharmacology in Ayurveda) and botany texts exclusively facilitated for PG and PhD scholars as free references.
2) Comparing of the genuine field samples with available substitutes and adulterants all across the country. (Lab oriented documentation).
3) Based on the above floral study, instead of procuring from the forests, we are cultivating the medicinal plants among the farmers residing in that flora. Either as cash crops or agro farming, exclusively in lands untouched by chemicals (virgin) in the form of pesticides, insecticides, fertilizers etc.(Research on cultivation practices and documentation). We extend the information regarding the traditional cultivation and post-harvest managements among the other farmers also.
4) Utilizing these herbs for serving the public by treating all the diseases where allopathic system does not have a permanent solution other than surgery (Clinical research and documentation). We aim to update the protocols of all classical
formulations regarding its efficacy on bio-chemical and immunological strategies. We also develop protocols to document Ayurvedic applications behind specific therapeutic indications by incorporating with Sanskrit and Ayurvedic subject experts.
5) These information’s are strictly being shared only with PG and PhD scholars to promote the Indian and Sri Lankan youths of Ayurveda, as these are the only countries that have accepted Ayurveda as a medical system by professional academy.
6) Conservation projects: We work with nature clubs of schools all across the country to plant endangering medicinal trees that are naturally seen in their flora by donating the saplings. Dr. Dileep Kumar give awareness classes (from 5th to 12th classes) to the members of the nature club regarding the importance of tree conservation and its importance in the environmental protection.
Dr. Dileep Kumar also has a lifetime ambition to plant 1, 50,000 deodar trees (Devdaru) in the Himalayas. The project has already started from the month of August 2009.
1) Encourage enthusiastic practitioners who are ready to change the mind-set by providing genuine medicines directly from the farmers and also by providing free guidance on genuine medical practices.
2) Involve Ayurvedic doctors in commercial cultivation of original medicinal plants.
Finally we humbly solicit the support from our well wishers and desist to seek any manpower or aid of any kind from the Govt./NGOs/other legal bodies constituted for the objects placed before you.

Soil test, MoU, irrigation, basic requirements and post harvest managements up to value adding systems have been emphasized. These projects are enabled with the support of CSR activities and financial support from the government. We provide free saplings and do periodical visits and guidance to monitor progress in cultivation.

Qualified Ayurvedic practitioners who are into classical Ayurvedic practices are selected for practical training programs to make them competent through integrated approach.
7) Developing school of Ayurveda through Thadvidya sambhasha:
Academicians and researchers in Ayurveda are participating in the program for finding out solutions in controversies under all aspects of Ayurvedic practices.
8) Media developments:
Documentaries, video clips, audio clips and movies are intended to propagate true spirit of classical Ayurveda in simple versions for public acceptance. This is to avoid confusions, p
The Speciality of this Organisation is that we create chairpersons out of the people who join us. Help the person work with us in true team spirit, to achieve the goal in the next 10 years. Main focus is given to critically endangering plants by conserving them in the forests and cultivating it through farming.
DRAVYA GUNA deals with medicinal and therapeutic principles that are ascribed as the main tool for the treatment aspects in Ayurveda. In simpler version it can be interpreted as the following modern strategies.
1) Pharmacognosy ( identification of drugs)
2) Pharmaco-dynamics ( somatic & cellular response of drugs)
3) Pharmaco therapeutics (logics in the application of the treatments )
Dravya guna is also mentioned as the only one link between pharmacopeia and therapeutic applications. It mainly explains about drugs from plants, animals, metals and minerals.
We are emphasising more on the drugs of plant origin and trying to solve the controversies in its identification and usage.
